Gia thought Lina was brave. “You did right, Lina. Someone exposed that their drinks are shady. They use harmful
chemicals. If they continue selling it, it’ll be terrible for the consumers!”
“But the Grists are powerful. They didn’t do anything even after they were exposed. Instead, they’re oppressing
us.” Lina played with her hair stressfully. “I don’t care about anything else. I’m just worried that I’ll drag my parents
and brother down.”
Gia held her hand softly.
The Grists were powerful in the business industry in Jangasas. They were rich and powerful. The beverage company
under the Grist Group had been achieving No. 1 in sales for many years. They were slowly taking over the market,
and some imported brands were eliminated.
As such, the Grist Group was dominant, and they were getting careless with their quality.
The recently exposed product, Rose Dew. was found to be falsely advertised. Despite claims of being healthy and

mixture of artificial flavors, coloring, and chemicals. Not only was it ineffective in providing any benefits, but it was
also harmful to the body. As a result, numerous individuals took to the Internet to voice their criticism of the
product.
Upon noticing that her family’s supermarket was selling the beverage, which was displayed in a prominent location,
Lina swiftly removed the product from the shelves.
Driven by impulse, she reported the company and even wrote a letter urging other businesses to boycott the Grists.
It was this action that made Lina a target of Violet’s hostility at school.
Lina sighed, regretting it a little bit now. How could she be so impulsive? She should have had a bulletproof plan.
Gia grabbed her shoulders, advising her not to think so much. She should think about her own safety for now.
“Violet certainly won’t let you go,” she said. “You guys are like enemies in school now. She might drag you into the
bathroom next time!”
“She failed to do anything to me today. I don’t think she’d go for the bathroom again.” Lina smiled. “I should be fine
if I’m more careful.”
Gia nodded. There was nothing that she could do about her.
In reality, nobody was willing to take the lead to confront the injustice. However, this rebellious girl had always been
a heroine who insisted on claiming justice.
Nevertheless, Lina usually had a plan before she made noise. It was just that this involved her family supermarket’s
profit, which was worrying for her.
…
The two girls went home after chatting for a while.
It was not dinner time yet, so Lina dropped by the store first and happened to run into the stockist.
A tall man moved boxes into the store. She inched closer to look and was surprised to find that the boxes contained
Rose Dew!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Hey, what are you doing!?” She charged ahead and blocked the door.
The man looked up.
The face beneath the baseball cap was chiseled. His features were so pretty that it felt as if God carved them
Himself.
Lina was stunned. She would secretly read romance s when she was in middle school, and they would always
describe the male lead’s eyebrows to be sharp like a sword and eyes big like stars.
She thought the description was unrealistic. It must be the authors’ imagination!
However, today, at that very moment, she suddenly felt that the description really existed.
The man was approximately 1.9 meters tall. The petite Lina had to lift her head to look at him and couldn’t help but
notice the subtle display of his chest muscles beneath his white tee. His arms showcased well-defined muscles,
exuding strength.
He possessed a unique charisma that set him apart. There was an inherent aura of intimidation surrounding him as
if it were ingrained in his very being.
Lina could not help but take a step back.
“Miss, do you not want these?” The man’s deep voice was electric, like a cello.
